In this pioneering new work, based on a thorough re-reading of
primary sources and new research in the Austrian State Archives,
Franz Szabo presents a fascinating reassessment of the continental
war. Professor Szabo challenges the well-established myth that the
Seven Years War was won through the military skill and tenacity of
the King of Prussia, often styled Frederick "the Great". Instead he
argues that Prussia did not win, but merely survived the Seven
Years War and did so despite and not because of the actions and
decisions of its king. With balanced attention to all the major
participants and to all conflict zones on the European continent,
the book describes the strategies and tactics of the military
leaders on all sides, analyzes the major battles of the war and
illuminates the diplomatic, political and financial aspects of the
conflict.
